20100090672 | DC gain improvement of a digitally controlled DC-DC converter by LSB tuning - An easy LSB tuning method is proposed for a digitally controlled DC-DC converter to increase the DC gain of the digitally controlled DC-DC converter under conditions of no-limit-cycle and a finite bit number to reduce steady-state error of the digitally controlled DC-DC converter. The LSB of one or more of the coefficients in the denominator of the discrete-time domain transfer function of the digital compensator in the digitally controlled DC-DC converter is so tuned that the sum of all coefficients in the denominator of the discrete-time domain transfer function becomes zero. Therefore, the influence of round-off effect on the coefficients of the digital compensator is mitigated. | 04-15-2010 |

20110084673 | OPERATING PHASE NUMBER DEPENDENT COMPENSATION OF A MULTI-PHASE BUCK CONVERTER - A multi-phase buck converter has a digital compensator to select a set of compensation coefficients depending on the operating phase number of the multi-phase buck converter, or including different compensators for each operation phase number to improve the loop gain bandwidth, transient response and stability of the multi-phase buck converter. The multi-phase buck converter operates with more phase circuits for higher loading and operates with fewer phase circuits for lower loading. The compensation varies with the number of the operated phase circuits so to be adaptive to the operation condition with an optimized control-to-output voltage transfer function. | 04-14-2011 |

Thus, functions of controlling the negative or positive load lines and function of variable load line required by the operation of multiphase converter can be performed easily without complicated operations. | 04-14-2011 |
20110187341 | USING OFFSET CANCELLATION CIRCUIT TO MITIGATE BEAT-FREQUENCY OSCILLATION OF PHASE CURRENTS IN A MULTIPHASE INTERLEAVED VOLTAGE REGULATOR - For a multiphase interleaved voltage regulator, an offset cancellation circuit is applied for each phase separately. The current loop gain of each phase is thus increased to mitigate the beat-frequency oscillation in phase currents when the beat frequency is below the bandwidth of the low-pass filter in the offset cancellation circuit, without introducing additional instability issue that is the drawback of increasing current-sensing gain. | 08-04-2011 |
